Ink blending on coloured cardstock

This month group of seven cardmakers are ink blending on coloured cardstock.  I used dark red cardstock and used brown ink to sponge on. Then I went around the edges with black. The image was embossed in white. The sponging adds dimension to the focal point. This is something I need to practice on but I like the look of it. 




Be kind to one another.
